Hide Profile

Since its inception in 1905, the Geophysical Laboratory has been one of the world's foremost laboratories in the science of petrology, and it remains at the forefront of high-pressure and high-temperature research. The Geophysical Laboratory Photograph Collection documents the history of the laboratory in images. The bulk of the photographs were taken during field expeditions between 1912 and 1937.
